Maintaining the health and vigor of your landscape trees
is an important task. Just one well-placed mature shade
tree could add up to $15,000 to the value of your home
in certain areas.

At AlwaysEco, we use top of the line equipment designed
specifically for the arboricultural industry. We use state-of-the-art
injection systems that prevent waste and protect other
garden plants from excess applications of our safe organic
fertilizers or our safe all-natural non-toxic pesticides.
We use eco-friendly pump systems that are 100% electric,
quiet, and neighborhood friendly. Every part of our arbor
care service is "Safe Around Children And Pets."

Proper Fertilization
Many tree owners fertilize to solve tree health problems.
But did you know that fertilizing may sometimes make the
problem worse - especially when you use synthetic fertilizers?
Over fertilizing, fertilizing with synthetics, or fertilizing
your trees during times of stress could actually make
your trees more susceptible to disease and insect infestation.
Synthetic fertilizers rob your soil of important organic
content that your trees use for bartering with other organisms
for nutrients, oxygen, and water. This bartering process
is called a symbiotic soil relationship and is vital to
the soil food web. In some cases, your entire tree may
exfoliate in response to over-fertilizing to prevent excess
metabolic uptake - especially oak trees (Quercus). Professional
arbor care requires a licensed, insured, bonded, trained,
experienced and traveled professional to diagnose and
medically tree disease symptoms properly.

We
provide cosmetic tree surgery, scaffold branch cabling,
light pruning for disease control, root pruning, and canopy
thinning for residential shade trees. We provide deep
root fertilization, root zone aeration, systemic feeding,
and systemic disease control. We can feed your trees with
special hypodermic tools for instant "green up" and "leaf
out" assistance without disturbing your soil or other
plant species. If you require major pruning, tree removal,
or power line clearance services, we will supervise the
project for you.

We are experts in oak-wilt disease, sudden oak death,
and fusarium wilt. In fact, our Certified Arborist was
invited to the Mayor's office for the City of Los Angeles
to consult on solving the fusarium wilt problems for more
than 2 million date palms in Los Angeles County, California.

Pesticides and Your Trees
More than a billion of pounds of synthetic pesticides
rain down on the U.S. each year. Those pesticides also
affect your trees and plants. Unlike mammals, trees and
plants have little control over uptake and will absorb
many different liquids - whether good for the tree or
not. Synthetic pesticides poison trees either intentionally
or unintentionally. A direct cambium injection, foliar
application, or root zone injection of an herbicide/pesticide
solution will kill the tree. However, maintenance sprays
of synthetic pesticides alone poison the tree in all cases
without exception. Some pesticides are phytotoxic, which
means they are harmful to plant species. Others are not
phytotoxic in that the pesticide will not kill the plant,
but it would still poison the plant. Trees are indiscriminate
in the uptake or feeding process except when dying due
to intravascular blockages. You could liken trees and
plants to infants - "everything goes into the mouth."
Synthetic pesticides are a danger to otherwise healthy
trees and landscape plants and should never be applied.
The pesticides become foliar or systemic poisons to beneficial
insects, pollinating bees, and predator insects. Additionally,
even if it were true that active ingredients in many pyrethroid-based
pesticides have short half-lives, the pesticide synergist
does not - especially arsenic and cyanide. Increased levels
of arsenic in plants cause plants to release trace amounts
of arsine gas during transpiration. Essentially, the toxins
in the tree become toxins in the air and your yard.

ISA Certified Arborist
AlwaysEco offers a recognized ISA Certified Arborist,
Master Gardner, Rosarian, and Certified Tree Growth Regulator
for all of your horticultural needs. Our Certified Arborist
is the unofficial world-record holder for having
completed the largest official tree appraisal in history
for a national family park, providing 1,100 Certified
Tree Appraisals and over 300 Certified Exotic Plant Appraisals,
resulting in a multi-million dollar settlement with the
insurance company (5 times more than the original offer
before the appraisals). Our arborist provides tree and
plant physiological reports, tree and plant disease diagnoses,
and 100% organic remediation. One of few Plant Appraisers
in the U.S., our arborist can help with tree and landscape
damage reports for insurance purposes. He has served military
bases and state entities in the areas of arboricultural
consultation and disease vector control. Additionally,
our Certified Arborist performed the verified Hazard Tree
Assessment for 26 Regional Parks in California. The government
authorized Hazard Tree Assessment prevented forest fires,
saved lives, saved wildlife, and saved property. In private
practice, our Certified Arborist served as Tree Warden
for more than 400 trees for a national management firm,
and has worked side-by-side with the nation's largest
tree service and Southern California Edison for field
studies on the effects of tree growth regulators (TGR's).

Your AlwaysEco Certified Arborist has studied, treated
and evaluated trees from the mountainous regions of California
to the coastal shores of Virginia to the rolling hills
of Central Texas for clients. From prized Japanese Maple
to awe-inspiring Southern Catalpa, your Certified Arborist
specializes in east, west, and gulf coast varieties, to
include all varieties of palm, pine, oak, maple, elm,
eucalyptus, pear, citrus, plum, myrtle, sycamore; desert
species such as mesquite, tamarisks, and verde, plains
trees such as poplar and fir, coastal swamp species such
as mountain gum and malaleuca, and high altitude species
such as manzanita, lodge pole and torrey pine. We provide
affordable consultations, accredited reports, disease
and pathogen vector identification and remediation, and
expert testimony for insurance purposes. Thus far,
our Certified Arborist has never had an appraisal or recommendation
over-turned or disputed by a state agency, insurance company,
private firm, mangement company, or homeowner.

Lawn & Landscape Consultation
Turf varieties, competing species, soil composition, percolation
rates, biotic content, pH, and numerous other factors
affect the quality of your lawn. There is more to lawn
care than spray fertilizer and mowing. Lawn care is environmental
care because the entire environment contributes to your
lawn. Our services provide lawn and turf insect and disease
control, organic fertilization, soil remediation and balancing,
compost and bacteria injections. We keep your lawn healthy,
which means your lawn grows well, greens up quickly, and
stays green all season. We never use harsh synthetic toxins
or fertilizers that only deplete the soil of nutrients,
trace minerals, and eventually end up in our water supply.
With AlwaysEco, it's all natural all the time.

Weed Abatement
AlwaysEco offers physical labor services under the direct
supervision and participation of the operator and the
horticulturalist. Noxious weed control, common weeds control
and removal, as well as nuisance and poisonous plant removal
(such as oleander and arundo donax control) are available
to residential and commercial customers. We use a combination
of physical and non-toxic chemical abatement methods.
Regardless of the service, AlwaysEco is all-natural all
the time.

Beautiful Roses
Caring for your prized roses is an art, hobby, and a profession.
Did you know that we can give your roses larger blooms,
longer stems, and stronger canes with our organic services,
professional consultation, and delicate pruning practices?
Our Rosarian has pruned and demonstrated proper pruning
techniques to hundreds of visitors for the antique, 100
year-old roses at the University of California Botanic
Gardens. Our Rosarian trained under a Master Rosarian
from the American Rose Society. We can help your roses
bloom to their fullest potential, revive dying roses in
some cases, and give you the best-looking rose-garden
in your neighborhood at affordable quarterly rates.

Volunteer Arborist & Horticultural Services
If you manage a park, preserve, refuge, or open-space
and you need a supervisor to instruct and supervise your
volunteers in the proper planting of trees or roses, or
provide a class on tree planting or rose planting and
care, our Certified Arborist and our Certified Arborists'
Apprentice would be happy to assist your group at no cost.
Please make your request at least 30 days in advance.
